As I have been advising you the cold water upwelling is now here in full bloom. It extends well offshore all the way to turtle mound. This upwelling will make some fish lie virtually motionless like in a hypnotic state while other fish will move to warmer waters.

By Stanley Escudero of Daytona Beach ShoresCongress is congenitally incapable of agreeing on politically controversial issues like the debt ceiling until the last possible moment. Even then they can be counted on to seek the safest common denominator which usually means a partial agreement. That in turn kicks the hardest part of the problem into future congresses or leaves loopholes which future congresses can use to avoid making these same hard decisions.

I live in Ponce Inlet at the end of a street that backs up to a greenway. My new neighbors tell me that I will see wildlife here like I have never seen it before. It’s been two weeks and so far, nothing.
All the elected officials, aides, politicians, czars, lobbyists, and janitors in Washington can’t seem to come up with a solution to our so-called “debt crisis.” It isn’t that I don’t believe there "is" a debt crisis; it’s that it could be solved so easily if the above-named dolts would set aside their egos and do the right thing.

DELTONA -- A 21-month-old toddler drowned in a small backyard swimming pool early Monday evening in Deltona, a Volusia County spokesman said. The little girl became the eighth child under 4 to die so far this year in Volusia County as a result of a pool drowning.
Sheriff’s deputies and rescue crews with the Deltona Fire Department and EVAC ambulance were dispatched to a residence on Apricot Drive at 7:39 p.m. That’s where a family member brought the unresponsive child -- Rocio Vazquez Naranjo -- seeking help.
"The child’s mother, father and an older sibling were home at the time and didn’t realize that the little girl had wandered off," Sheriff's spokesman Gary Davidson said. "The family searched their home and found Rocio in the pool. They pulled the girl out of the water and brought her down the street to a house where the resident knew CPR."
That resident tried to revive the child until paramedics arrived a few minutes later to take over, Davidson said, but they were unable to revive her en route to Florida Hospital Fish Memorial in Orange City.
"Medical personnel were unable to resuscitate her," the Sheriff's spokesman said. "She was pronounced dead at 8:30 p.m. The incident is under investigation by the Volusia County Sheriff’s Office."
